hi-
CONGRATS!!!!

I think I understand- it is SCARY to buy all new clothes, and even scarier to think you might not fit in them next year.
STAY ON PLAN- and it will be okay is what I have learned. I don't know about your body readjusting - what do others think about this? STAY ON PLAN!!!


About the clothes- been there! Got lots of clothes in a size 12 then lost 25 more lbs and had to get rid of them. Couldn't tailer tham down - too big.
Make a list of your MUST HAVES and a realistic budget. My must haves were new bras, jeans, polos, and some work outfits. I got more as time went on.
I shop mostly in Marshalls/TJ Maxx and on deep sales in department stores. Not sure what they have in your town. I find I can wear clothes over and over if I add in a scarf, a different color tee shirt, a jacket.
Thrift shops are also great for basics.

It's okay to be scared, but you also have to look and feel good! Start slow- add on as you get more confidence. and once again-
CONGRATS
